"We turn them into spccialtics by adding. on order. the needed ingredients. such as diced Jumbo shrimp; lobster viiiaigretto; Por- tuguese sardines; diced Bismarck herring and onion l'lllf:SL or jui- lennes of turkey or hnm. The basic salad must be crisp. cvcry ingred- lent glistening with dressing. but never. never soggy 1''

DEAR MARY HAWORTH: I

have a neighbor and friend. I'll call her Mrs.. Jones. a very fine person except for one trait which causes her. and those around her much heartache. She is just too semitive, and though she has tried through the years to over- come the fault it seems she can't. She is 64. She was married at 23 and divorced 10 years later-mainly her fault, she admits. as her feelings were just too easily hurt. She reared two children alone and did a fine job: they are both college grad- uates and happily married.

she has many good friends but loses it lot of them. For example if guests at her table refuse a second piece of pie. she taken it

After she dines with friends. she always sends an elaborate thank-you letter, and as few of her guests do the name, she feels insulted and thinks they aren't appreciative.

GRANITE

Once she quit her job for a while in care for a neighbor who was; ill. then later crossed the neighbor of! her list. because she felt the neighbor hadn't. shown enough appreciation of All she (Mrs. Jonest had done for her. No amount of apology will smooth things out with Mrs. Jones once she has taken offense. She simply drops the offenders, who often don't know why.

Recently she is desperate because her children. having babies of their own, aren't. visiting her as often as she thinks they should. She has stopped writing to her son. after telling him not to bother to keep

more. She cries and worries until she is almost ill and says she doesn't know why people dislike her so. It is all in her mind.

she is religious, likes music and poetry and has great artistic abil- ity. Can you suggest any books to help her? I. C.

She also loves flowers, and as a result up to 3,000 persons a year drop in to see her. Local an ,visiting gardeners alike say she has one of the most attractive pri- vate gardens in the Marltimes.

Most of the visitors have never seen Mrs. MacMlllan before, but they go out of their way to drive over a dusty road to the neat little white house five miles from Char- lottetown.

Postponing Old Age

N. lundeuu, M. D.

oiwwma old gmciouiny is good advice. But how much better to postpone the physical signs of e.

I!

It is I bad habit to count I per- son's age by the number of years he has left.

First. if he has Injoyed every minute of his life, no matter what the span. it can be said that he has been living. second. if he on- joys every minute of his life, he not only will live longer. counting by years. but he will do more pro- ductive work.

The study of Tiunoo

When we count the length of life by the number of years. we call it chronology. If age is measured by how well all the body tissues are standing up under the modern strain of life. we call it biology.

In the later years of life. we can make every minute count by pay-- lng attention to changes - I few important things: diet, exercise. rest. regular checkups.

It is well accepted now that the diet in later years must be high in proteins. particularly those known as complete proteins, because they supply the ten essential amino acid substances from which proteins are made. These ten essential amino Acids are needed because they can- not be built in the body and they. in turn. are necessary for rebuild- ing worn-out tissues.

Foods supplying these complete proteins in greatest abundance are meat, milk and eggs. The diet must be kept high in vitamins and min-

erals. and should not contain ex- cessive fat. since it may lead to dis- position of fat in the liver. and LVI equent interference with the many duties of this important part of the body. Just. enough starchyq foods and sugars must be included to maintain body energy.

Dangers of Obesity The tendency in the later years is to overeat, which with the de- creased expenditure of physical en- ergy at this time of life, will re- sult lnevltably in gain of weight. overeating puts a strain on the heart and other Iparis of the body One of the best ways to guard against the so-called degenerative diseases of later years-heart dis- ease. cancer. diabetes or chronic kidney disorders - is a regular checkup by the doctor nt lcast once

a year or. better. twice a year.

Signs of deterioration can be quickly discovered and diet and habits so adjusted as not only to add years to your life but. life to your years.

QUESTION AND ANSWER

Mr. E.: is drinking of alcoholic beverages dangerous in an ulcer patient?

Answer: Yes. it is. Alcoholic bev- erages increase the amount of gas- trlc or stomach juices which are present. which in turn often pre- vents the ulcer from healing pro- perly.
